Peatlands and the carbon cycle: from local processes to global implications–a synthesis
Peatlands cover only 3% of the Earth's land surface but boreal and subarctic peatlands store
about 15–30% of the world's soil carbon (C) as peat. Despite their potential for large positive …

Rapid loss of an ecosystem engineer: Sphagnum decline in an experimentally warmed bog
Sphagnum mosses are keystone components of peatland ecosystems. They facilitate the
accumulation of carbon in peat deposits, but climate change is predicted to expose peatland …

Rewetting degraded peatlands for climate and biodiversity benefits: Results from two raised bogs
Globally, peatlands are under threat from a range of land use related factors that have a
significant impact on the provision of ecosystem services, such as biodiversity and carbon …

Effects of climate warming on Sphagnum photosynthesis in peatlands depend on peat moisture and species‐specific anatomical traits
Climate change will influence plant photosynthesis by altering patterns of temperature and
precipitation, including their variability and seasonality. Both effects may be important for …

Effects of water level alteration on carbon cycling in peatlands
Globally, peatlands play an important role in the carbon (C) cycle. High water level is a key
factor in maintaining C storage in peatlands, but water levels are vulnerable to climate …

Persistent high temperature and low precipitation reduce peat carbon accumulation
Extreme climate events are predicted to become more frequent and intense. Their ecological
impacts, particularly on carbon cycling, can differ in relation to ecosystem sensitivity …

Disentangling direct and indirect effects of water table drawdown on above‐and belowground plant litter decomposition: consequences for accumulation of organic …
P Straková, T Penttilä, J Laine… - Global Change …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Pristine peatlands are carbon (C)‐accumulating wetland ecosystems sustained by a high
water table (WT) and consequent anoxia that slows down decomposition. Persistent WT …
